#and how we can work out the condradivtions that exist

[minlex]

Sometimes I feel quite removed from the "queer community" or whatever you call it, even though I know I technically could be a part of it. I'm trans, I'm queer. But I think the reason I feel so out of place is just because while I am those things, they're not the most important part of me. I'm lucky enough to have friends and family who respect me and doesn't think twice about it, giving me more time to actually do things I enjoy rather than feel dismayed about my identity all the time.

It's more important to me that I'm a communist than I'm trans for example.

#i kind of think thats why im more comfortable discussing trans issues from a feminist viewpoint as well #most of my friends are radical feminists and are in no way transphobic #and we have a lot of good discussions about how the trans fight and feminist fight goes hnd in hand #and how we can work out the condradivtions that exist #but i can never really recount that here without being accused of being a terf lmao #when you have to spend all your time defending yourself i get that you dont have the time to discuss ideology putting you in risk of being #unfairly treated #like i really get that #its just such a shame so many trans people desperately have to spend their time defending themselves #fucking sucks man
